Just as he was about to help Xiao Rushi up, Yan Zhiqiao suddenly felt a dull pain in his chest like a knife.

The demonic power is rioting again.

But fortunately it’s not as serious as last time.

Yan Zhiqiao closed his eyes and took a deep breath to suppress the blood foam rising in his throat.

She pretended nothing had happened and sent Xiao Rushi back to the inn, then left in her reluctant gaze.

After leaving Qinghe City and coming to an uninhabited mountain forest, Yan Zhiqiao finally couldn't hold on any longer. He held onto a tree next to him with one hand and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"cough…"

The red blood sprayed on the leaves and the ground, quickly turning deep red.

Yan Zhiqiao raised his hand expressionlessly to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, sat down casually, kowtowed to Hui Yuan Dan, and began to meditate and regulate his breathing.

The demonic power in the body has been playing against the evil spirit.

When she uses her demonic power, the evil spirit will not be affected, but when she uses the evil spirit, the demonic power will take the opportunity to riot.

This is a huge hidden danger for Yan Zhiqiao, which is why he listened to the sect leader and stayed in Lingxiao Sect to try to cultivate his spiritual power.

The three-party checks and balances are the most stable.

Facts have proved that Yan Zhiqiao's decision was correct.

Although he is only in the late stage of Qi training and the spiritual power in his body is pitifully small, it still plays a small role.

It was unknown how much time had passed before Yan Zhiqiao slowly opened his eyes, and red spiritual power condensed in his palms.

She broke through.

Although there was no thunder tribulation from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, she was able to break through so easily just by meditating and regulating her breathing.

Born as a spiritual being, he is truly a favorite of heaven.

The sky was gradually getting darker, and suddenly a gust of wind blew through the forest, causing the leaves to rustle.

Feeling that his internal injuries were slowly healing, Yan Zhiqiao stood up.

Just as he was thinking about whether to go back to Qinghe City and rent a flying boat to return to Lingxiao Sect, the disciple badge on his waist suddenly lit up.

It was a message from a female disciple of Lingxiao Sect.

"Sixth Senior Sister, Third Senior Brother asked me to ask where you are now?"

Third senior brother?

Thinking of Jiang Ciyuan's patience after being teased by her, Yan Zhiqiao thought he would no longer care about her.

"I'm outside Qinghe City."

"Then I will come to find Senior Sister right away, and then we will go back to the sect together."

Yan Zhiqiao actually wanted Jiang Ciyuan to come, but then he remembered that they still had to patrol tonight.

The reason this female disciple was able to leave was probably because Jiang Ciyuan was worried that she would not be able to fly back to the sect on a sword, so he asked her to come and see her off.

Well, that's quite attentive.

"it is good."

The female disciple might be nearby. Yan Zhiqiao didn’t have to wait long before he saw her coming on a sword.

Her name is Ye Qingruan, and her current cultivation level is in the late Golden Core stage.

As soon as they met, Ye Qingruan realized that Yan Zhiqiao had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

She jumped off the sword and said in surprise: "Sixth Senior Sister, you have made a breakthrough!"

When he left the sect, Yan Zhiqiao was still in the late stage of Qi Refining.

Unexpectedly, she broke through in just a few hours.

This talent is simply beyond reach!

Yan Zhiqiao skillfully put on a gentle and well-behaved smile and nodded slightly.

"Well, I just broke through."

"congratulations!!"

Ye Qingruan congratulated sincerely, and the smile on her face was so genuine that it seemed as if she was the one who made the breakthrough.

"Thank you, Junior Sister Ye. I would also like to trouble Junior Sister Ye to send me back to the sect."

"It's okay~ I just want to be lazy for a while."

Ye Qingruan did not deny that she was specially sent by Jiang Ciyuan, and she smiled playfully at Yan Zhiqiao.

"Sixth Senior Sister, let's go."

"it is good."

Yan Zhiqiao lifted her skirt and was about to draw her sword, but Ye Qingruan tugged at her sleeve.

"Sixth Senior Sister, please stand in front. I'm afraid you can't stand steadily."

Yan Zhiqiao paused, then realized that it must be what Jiang Ciyuan said.

Thinking of the embarrassing situation when the sword fell in the afternoon, she couldn't help laughing in her heart.

"it is good."

When we returned to Lingxiao Sect, it was already late at night and everything was quiet.

Ye Qingruan put Yan Zhiqiao down at the sect gate and prepared to go back to continue patrolling.

"Senior sister, I'll leave first."

"and many more."

Yan Zhiqiao took out five top-grade spirit stones from his Qiankun bag and handed them over.

"You have worked hard on the night patrol. Junior Sister Ye, please help me treat everyone to some delicious food."

Ye Qingruan originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Yan Zhiqiao's sincere face, she finally took a top-grade spirit stone from her hand.

"Sixth Senior Sister, you gave us too much. We can't spend it all."

One top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and one mid-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones.

If they went out to eat, even at the best restaurant, they would spend no more than twenty mid-grade spirit stones.

"I'll return the rest to Senior Sister after I finish my patrol."

Although Sixth Senior Sister was very generous, Ye Qingruan didn't want to take advantage of her.

Yan Zhiqiao had a rough idea of ​​the prices in the world of cultivation this afternoon.

She did not force Ye Qingruan to accept all of them, and kept the remaining four.

"No, you keep the rest and I'll treat everyone the next time I go out on patrol."

If Yan Zhiqiao only invited Ye Qingruan, Ye Qingruan would definitely refuse.

But this was her expression of kindness for everyone, and patrolling was indeed hard work, so Ye Qingruan didn't say anything more.

"Thank you so much, Sixth Senior Sister!! Sixth Senior Sister is so kind!"

Yan Zhiqiao chuckled and watched Ye Qingruan leave in a hurry before turning around and entering the sect.

She did not return to the courtyard immediately, but went to Liuyun Palace.

The headmaster was meditating. When he heard Yan Zhiqiao's voice, he slowly opened his eyes.

"Come in."

After Yan Zhiqiao entered the room and stood still, he bowed to him respectfully.

"Master, disciple is back."

The head of the sect looked at Yan Zhiqiao quietly.

"You broke through."

"Yes."

Yan Zhiqiao concealed the fact that he was injured due to the demonic riot.

"Although it is easy to advance to a natural spiritual body, you still have to practice hard to stabilize your realm after you return."

"Disciple knows."

The headmaster gave her instructions in a calm voice, and seeing that Yan Zhiqiao had nothing else to report, he let her go back and rest.

Not long after she left, Elder Guangbai from Tianji Peak hurried over.

"Senior Brother Head."

The head of the sect frowned when he saw that he looked so serious.

"What's the matter?"

Elder Guangbai didn't even have time to greet him before explaining his purpose in a serious tone.

"I just felt something while meditating, so I observed the stars and made a divination. The five divine tools... may be about to appear."

Although the five sacred artifacts are ancient treasures, every time they appear, it means that the world is about to fall into chaos.

It may be a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, but it will always cause great suffering and misery to the people.

The head of the sect suddenly stood up from the mat, and the aura around him became especially heavy and cold.

"Can you tell whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?"

"The hexagram points to the north. I guess it may be related to the Demon Lord Zhan Ying who was sealed by the masters thousands of years ago."

The Demon Lord Zhan Ying is a terrifying existence.

Thousands of years ago, he led the brave and warlike demon clan and almost conquered the world of cultivation and the monster clan. His own strength was so strong that he was just one step away from becoming a demon god.

At that time, the five divine artifacts were also born, but they failed to suppress it. In the end, it took the joint sacrifice of many powerful people to seal Zhan Ying in the Wuwang Sea in the far north.

If he were to break the seal and reappear in the world at this moment, with the current strength of the cultivation world, I'm afraid they would be unable to put up a fight!
